Themoji

Background

We were in Thailand in a local restaurant, they couldn't speak English, so we pointed at the English/Thai title on the menu. We got our food without rice, but didn't have anything to point to - we thought about how we can communicate that.

This is when it hit us: We didn't have an internet connection to just google for rice. But what do we all have locally? Emojis

Implementation

Themoji is a super simple application, you search for an emoji and it will be displayed full-screen on your iPhone. You can then show this to your waitress, bartender or other locals.
